Summary: Hermione marvels at the wonder that is Hogwarts, and gets her very first glimpse of Draco Malfoy.
Bright brown eyes gazed in astonishment as the first-years were herded into the Great Hall for the very first time, and an eleven-year-old Hermione Granger tilted her head back as far as she possibly could to get a good look at the starry ceiling above her. 'It does look real' she mused quietly, 'even though it's bewitched.' She continued her perusal of the magnificent dining area, bushy head turning this way and that, not even really paying attention to where she was going. So astounded was she that she didn't even notice the warning signs, and instead barreled straight into one of the small bodies in front of her.

Cold gray eyes turned to glare at her. "Watch your step, you filth," the boy snapped.

Hermione glared back as fiercely as she could, but said not a word.

Clearly, their relationship would be a rocky one.
